Letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi

Dear PM Shri Narendra Modi ji,

Namaskar,

Make this change and we will recognize your leadership

Lifetime pension accorded for one tenure of politicians - is gross injustice to the rest of the government servants who have to put in a minimum of 20 years of service, this is a drain on the public exchequer.

No one has been able to explain to me why young men & women who serve in the Military for 20 years or more, risking their lives protecting your freedom only get 50% of their pay on retirement & Short Service Commissioned Officers who also risk their life for a term varying from 5-14 yrs - get ZERO retirement benefits after their assignment.

While Politicians hold their political positions in the safe confines of the capital, protected by these very same men & women, receive Full-Pay on retirement after serving just one term of 5 yrs. Does it make any sense ? PM SIR, CHANGE THIS AND THE NATION SHALL BE GRATEFUL TO YOU FOR WHAT YOU DID.

Abolish, politician pension for life. As such they are above averagely rich people. Just like you motivated common people to give up subsidy, motivate MPs to give up many perks granted unanimously by themselves, but undeservingly exorbitant, including pension. May we hope it starts with yourself."

Forward this - may it become a national campaign.

You can choose not to pass it on, Your choice. These brave soldiers gave you that right!

The road to seek his rightful place in the society for the Indian Soldier is not likely to be an easy task. As on date he failed miserably. Neither the government nor the common citizen is inclined to give him his due by way of financial security and status. The government lacks the will and the common citizen is ignorant of his role in nation building. In the final analysis it will devolve on the soldier himself to find solutions to his problems and aspirations. Mass disobedience is not in his blood as it is with the common citizen. The senior military leadership will have to play a major role in this regard to keep up the morale of Indian Soldier. Unfortunately in the recent past the military leadership failed to do so and therefore the present problems. Are they waiting for a undesirable wake up call? Whatever be the situation, one thing is certain that the humble Indian soldier will continue to play his part in nation building – irrespective of whether or not rewards and applause come his way.
